BUDAPEST – They were beaming on stage. Arno Kamminga, Nyls Korstanje, Kira Toussaint and Marrit Steenbergen had recently won a bronze medal at the World Championships long track in Budapest. During the 4 times 100 meter medley the relay team raced behind America and Australia to the third fastest time. And that came as a huge surprise to the foursome. “This is really super cool”, Korstanje beamed afterwards.
